"Bess, You Is My Woman Now" is a #duet with music by #GeorgeGershwin and lyrics by #IraGershwin and #DuBoseHeyward. This song comes from the Gershwins' opera #PorgyAndBess (1935) where it is sung by the main character Porgy and his beloved Bess. They express their love for each other and say that they now belong together. The song has been covered a number of times by many artists (Porgy and Bess (Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong album), 1958). In 1959.

"Summertime" is an #aria composed in 1934 by #GeorgeGershwin for the 1935 #opera #PorgyAndBess.
